Definitely worth visiting.lots of work still in progress but what has been renovated looks stunning.
The whole Ksiezy Mlyn is worth stopping by and having proper look.
There is a lot of history in this place and I would recommend to read some basic historical information prior visiting the site. Some old parts are preserved as they were more than 100 years ago there is no asphalt on the road. Don't miss it if you are in Lodz.

You need to visit this street to see how the old mills functioned and the small town settings the owners created
Many of the buildings are now fabulous flats

I read a lot about it and if you want to enjoy this area you need to do the same. Looking at hose building with understanding their history is a great lesson.

Most of the visitors to the city of Lodz are more-or-less aware that it is a very good example of the big industrial city that "burst-out" of the small village-like city in the second half of the XIX c. But only few of them have a knowledge, that this is probably one of the last places on the Earth where you can see "classic industrial town" with the factory (unfortunately now in ruins), proprietor's palace and workers dwellings. This is what Ksiezy Mlyn is. For some visitors it may be interesting, that in the second half of the XXth c. factory was still active, and that was the only working factory where pope John Paul II visited the mostly women crew.

The buildings are monumental in size, especially the converted main structure. Other structures are in varying stages of being brought back to life. As a historical industrial site it is interesting to compare with the UK, where squalid conditions were endured by the workforce at home during the 19th century. Here, everything seem to have been provided for the workforce. Interesting to wander around the area.

Ok, there are some small buildings made of red bricks. Nothing special. Workers used to live here. So what? You can't go inside. They are not monumental, they are not towers you can climb. Just few little red houses made of bricks. I used to live in Lodz and this place was described as legendary. But hey, nothing special.

If possible, see Wajda's film "The Promised Land" to get a perspective on the history of this area of Poland. The size of the industrial complex is overwhelming. Try and place yourself in the era where thousands of people were at work in the mill. Other reviewers have talked about the contrast of old and new. What I find interesting about the contrast of this area is how it is being repurposed for the 21st century. Make sure to visit the Herbst House and the Museum for a perspective on the industrialist's life.

Ksiezy Mlyn (priests mill) (chenzey mwin)
This is a very unique part of Lodz, it is one of the areas which had a huge factory fabricating cloth, textiles, clothing etc. It is a museum from the past. You should walk around and discover the areas for your self, It is being renovated gradually and some charm to the old place is also being changed but it still is a very nice and interesting walk. When I was there there were no cafes or shops so take drinks with you if you are walking in the heat of summer ( Poland gets very hot) Also good walking shoes. Call in at Schriebler daughters palace, it is very beautiful and shows how they lived. It also host's seasonal galleries (ie) ceramics. It is a good idea to get a guide book so you know what you are looking at. It is a great walk, There are no hills so it is fairly easy walking.

It is nothing there.... Just old street. Old buildings made of bricks... Nothing special, but it gives one of the kind vibes. I have never seen anything like that.
